~ O RDER OF WORSHIP~ We welcome all and extend a special greeting to our guests; our service is enriched by your presence! Please join us in Chapin Hall for fellowship time after worship. The Welcome Table in Chapin Hall offers information about the church and members who can answer your questions. Hearing devices and large-print bulletins are available for worship ask an usher. Nursery care is always available down the hall in Room 4. WELCOME AND ANNOUNCEMENTS The Rev. Dr. Brenda Pelc-Faszcza Please include your full address and phone number as you sign our friendship registration pads, and please wear your nametags. All announcements should be written down and given to the ushers or pastors prior to worship. If you have a prayer request you would like read aloud for today s prayers, please fill out one of the prayer cards found in the friendship registration pads (your name is optional) and be prepared to pass it to the aisles at the time of the offering, when the cards will be collected. PRELUDE Pastorale Giuseppe Sammartini arr. P. Harris CALL TO WORSHIP Don Pagnucco This is the day that the Lord had made; let us rejoice and be glad in it! For God is always and everywhere around us, in us and among us. God is always and everywhere -- beyond us and yet close. God is always and everywhere even here, even now. And so we meet God once more in this place, with heart, soul, mind and strength, that we might learn to see and praise God everywhere. *HYMN God of Abraham and Sarah New Century (black) 20 * P l e a s e r i s e i n b o d y o r i n s p i r i t. * B o l d t y p e d e n o t e s c o l l e c t i v e r e s p o n s e.

*GATHERING PRAYER AND THE LORD S PRAYER Hear the promise of the gospel, that in God s love we are renewed, in God s mercy we are forgiven, in God s grace we receive the gift of new life. In that assurance, let us pray: O God whose forms are many, whose truth is one, we gather once more as your people and give thanks for our common life. As we seek once more the sure center for our living, we confess all that we do and all that we leave undone that pulls us from that center and turns our hearts toward lesser things. May your spirit awaken and renew us, today and tomorrow, for wholehearted love and wholehearted life. This we ask in Jesus name and spirit, as we also say together: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. *SUNG RESPONSE: Bless God, O my soul

SCRIP-SURE What is it? Scrip-sure is a fundraising program for our church, which allows the regular shopping we do at a variety of retailers to generate income for the church. How? Participating retailers sell gift certificates or gift cards to our church at a discount. Church members buy the certificates for full face value and redeem them for full face value, and our church keeps the difference as revenue. Everybody wins! The retailers get our business, and our church gets a regular source of revenue that involves nothing other than what we would all be doing anyway shopping/spending at grocery stores, drugstores, restaurants, gas stations, and many other businesses, including online retailers. The next scrip ordering deadline (for cards not kept in inventory) is Sunday, November 2. Note that this is one week later than usual. Following that, we'll place orders every two weeks through November and early December in order to provide more flexibility during the holiday season. Today we continue to have a variety of cards in inventory from more than 35 different restaurants and retailers, available for immediate purchase this morning, including (but not limited to): Coffee: Dunkin Donuts, Starbucks Fast food: Boston Market, Burger King, Chipotle, McDonalds, Panera, Subway, Wendy's Gas: Exxon/Mobil, Shell, Sunoco Grocery: Big Y, Stop & Shop, Trader Joe's, Westside Marketplace, Whole Foods Pharmacy: CVS, Walgreens Restaurants: Bertucci's, Bonefish Grill, Buffalo Wild Wings, On the Border Shopping: Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Bed Bath & Beyond, Best Buy, Home Depot, Kohl's, itunes, Lowes, Marshall's, Shutterfly, Staples, Target, Walmart See Deb Copes at the scrip table this morning for a complete listing of available cards, or to have all of your questions answered. Think SCRIP! THINK SCRIP!

October 2014: Children on the Run Written by Don & Maryjane Westra Restore us, O God of hosts; let your face shine, that we may be saved. Psalms 80:7 The United States faces a perfect storm of humanitarian crisis. Unaccompanied and separated children have crossed the border at unprecedented rates, the unanticipated result of foreign policy. Because they are on U.S. soil, our government has a legal, not to speak of ethical, obligation to provide protection, due process and basic needs to this wave of immigrants. Each child has the right by our own laws, to a fair hearing. This obligation was codified by the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008, which passed the House and Senate unanimously and was signed into law by President George W. Bush. That law says the children cannot be immediately sent back. Due process must be followed. Global Ministries, along with Honduran partners, Christian Commission for Development and the Evangelical and Reformed Church of Honduras, are responding to the crisis in Honduras. Both organizations work in the education sector providing training and counseling for youth affected by violence; training that will help them get jobs and avoid involvement with the gangs, the maras. Christians have a moral and ethical responsibility to keep children safe. In the end, this new surge, these new children may prove to be the salvation of the United States, just as other immigrants have been. Hondurans are hardworking, independent and extremely family-oriented, the very qualities we value. I am reminded that the Samaritan was a foreigner who stopped to help a stranger in need. Here in Honduras, the crisis is unfolding and I sympathize with people who want to escape. Please understand that leaving one s homeland is not easy and is never a first choice. Hondurans are drawn by fear and a need to escape violence, but even stronger is the need for hope. Don and Maryjane Westra serve with the Christian Commission for Development and are based in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. Don's appointment is supported by One Great Hour of Sharing and both appointments are made possible by Disciples' Mission Fund, Our Churches Wider Mission and your special gifts.

S.P.I.R.I.T. Corner Serve, Pray, Invite, Receive, Ignite, Tell S.P.I.R.I.T. Faith Nurture Ideas (Parents: Pick-Up your child in Chapin Hall) These faith nurture ideas coordinate with the weekly session plans for church school. We hope you will join us in learning, teaching, and growing together! Here s what we re learning about this week HEROES OF THE BIBLE. There is Daniel, Jonah, Joshua, Noah, David, Miriam and Moses, Esther, Jesus, Peter and John, Dorcas, Paul, Lydia, and many more. There are those that don t even get a name, men and woman who have great faith, who ask difficult questions, who speak up for justice, and even a child who shares his lunch so 5000 can be fed. They are never perfect people, they make mistakes, they are human, but when it matters they are brave, compassionate, giving, and have great faith. The heroes of the bible are often unexpected, teaching us that the ordinary can be extraordinary, and with God s love all things are possible. LESSON Dorcas Scripture: Acts 9:36-42 Talk About the Bible story children and youth explored this week. Here are some ways to nurture faith at home based on this week s story: (1) Memorize this week s Bible Verse, Psalm 37:3 Trust in the Lord and do good. ; (2) Dorcas spent her time helping and giving to others. Rake a neighbor s yard or help out with some other chore you wouldn t normally do. (3) Pay attention to those who help you this week. Look closely for them, and be sure to thank them. Pay it forward. Prayer For The Week: Thank you, God, for all your disciples. Help them trust in you and do good. Amen. BIBLE SUNDAY Sunday, November 2, 2014 Pre-K K, 2-3 Graders, and Confirmands will all receive bibles on November 2 nd. Please join us for this special event.
